^^^"y^lpHE Lewis and Clark Centennial Exposition cele- 
i fcuss cL *^flr brates the one-hundredth anniversary of the ex- 
ploration of the Oregon Country by an expedi- 
- — «... frifan nnder command of Captains Meriwether Lewis and 
William Clark, of the United States army. Thomas 
Jefferson, President of the United States, 
sent to Congress in 1803 a message recom- 
Histoncal mending this expedition, his object being to 
nificance explore the then unknown region lying be- 

tween the headwaters of the Missouri River 

and the Pacific Ocean, as well as the 
Louisiana territory intervening. The President's message 
resulted in the appropriation of a small sum for the ex- 
penses of the expedition, and Jefferson appointed his 
private secretary, Captain Lewis, to command the party. 
Lewis chose his friend, Captain Clark, to accompany 
him as joint commander. Lewis and Clark outfitted for 
their long journey at St. Louis, gathering about thirty 
trusted men for the expedition. The start was made from 
Camp Dubois, Illinois, a few miles above St. Louis, May 
14, 1804. The party ascended the Missouri River and 
spent the following winter amongst the Mandan Indians 
in what is now North Dakota. On April 7, 1805, the ex- 
pedition resumed the voyage up the Missouri to a point 
near the headwaters of that stream, and traveled by land 
through the mountains. They went down the Columbia 
River to its mouth, reaching the Pacific Ocean November 
7th, having traveled more than 4,000 miles. Spending 
the winter in a log stockade which they built on the 
south side of the Columbia, in what is now Clatsop 
County, Oregon, they started upon the return journey 
March 23, 1806, reaching St. Louis September 23d, after 
an absence of two years and four months. They were 
the first Americans who crossed the continent. 

The success of the Lewis and Clark expedition en- 
abled the United States to acquire all the territory now 
embraced in Oregon, Washington and Idaho and the 
western parts of Montana and Wyoming.

/^W^HE Lewis and Clark Centennial Exposition and 
VL Oriental Fair, the first international exposition 
under the patronage of the United States Gov- 
ernment ever held west of the Rocky Mountains, is a 
demonstration of the marvelous progress of Western 
America and an exemplification of the 
great possibilities for trade development 
Plan and Scope in the Orient. The exposition is a world's 
of the Exposition ^' ir m evei T sense, all of the chief nations 
______________ of Europe and the Orient being partici- 
pants, and many of the American states 
taking part. The Western states, from the Rocky Moun- 
tains to the Pacific, are participants upon a larger scale 
than has been the case at any previous exposition. Each 
of the Pacific Coast states is represented by exhibits 
which, for the first time, show to the world comprehen- 
sively the marvelous achievements of the Coast country, 
its wonderful natural riches and the vast wealth that still 
lies undeveloped in these states. The exposition is built 
upon the idea of compactness without crowding, and with 
a view to the comfort and convenience of the visitor, 
rather than to present an aspect of mere bigness. The 
grounds, comprising 406 acres of land and water, are 
large enough to accommodate the choicest of exhibits 
from all over the world, and small enough to enable the 
visitor to study the entire exposition without becoming 
footsore and weary. It is the belief of the men who made 
this exposition, seconded by many expert "exposition- 
ists," that in the laying out of the grounds and the placing 
of the various exhibit and amusement features the near- 
est approach to perfection ever achieved by a similar en- 
terprise has been made. This is an exposition of processes 
as well as of products. In addition to the raw materials, 
the processes by which they are converted into things of 
worth and beauty are shown and the finished products 
are also seen here.* The Lewis and Clark Centennial Ex- 
position is, in short, a world-epitome of the arts, indus- 
tries and general achievements of mankind.

/^^p'HE United States Government Buildings are sit- 
vL uated on the peninsula projecting into Guild's 
Lake and may be reached by the Grand Esplan- 
ade, the Trail and the Bridge of Nations, or by one of 
the numerous boats which convey visitors to the landing 
facing the main government structure. A 
large part of the $450,000 appropriation has 
United States been utilized for the finest buildings ever 
Government constructed for government participation in 
__________^_ an exposition. In design the structures are 

of Spanish renaissance. Two towers, 260 
feet High, surmount the main building. In this are 
housed the displays of the various departments of the 
government. The Irrigation building and Territorial 
structure are connected with the main building by classic 
peristyles. These contain comprehensive exhibits of the 
latest irrigation projects undertaken by the government 
in the great arid sections of the country, and exhibits of 
the products and manufactures of our territories. The 
Fisheries exhibit is located in a building erected for the 
purpose in the rear of the main building. In this are 
shown the various methods of maturing different species 
of fish that frequent the streams of the Pacific Northwest. 
The vertebrates are stripped of their eggs. These are 
jarred and processed. All the stages of the growth of 
the fish are shown in view of the public. The Life- 
Saving Station is located to the left of the main 
group and on the shore of the lake. Exhibition drills are 
given daily. To the right of the main building are the 
camps of the military, marine and signal corps, as well 
as the Heavy Ordinance exhibit, in which are shown the 
large guns utilized for coast defenses arid siege opera- 
tions. A feature of this exhibit is a full-sized 10-inch 
sea-coast gun, mounted behind ramparts on the latest 
pattern of disappearing carriage. On the outside are the 
many totem poles and quaint boats, too cumbersome to 
put inside the building. A life-saving station, where daily 
drills are given, is also found on the island.

ARTICIPATION by Oregon's sister common- 
wealths has been exceedingly liberal. A num- 
ber of splendid state buildings enhance the gen- 
eral appearance of the exposition. California has erected 
a picturesque structure just in the rear of the Forestry 
building. It is a replica of four of the fa- 
mous Franciscan missions. Adjoining this 



State Buildings * s tne Washington building, a magnificent 
- example of classical architecture and one 
of the largest state buildings on the 
grounds. Facing the Manufactures, Liberal Arts and 
Varied Industries palace is the Missouri state building. 
This is a handsome structure and contains a representa- 
tive exhibit of Missouri's products and manufactures. 
The Oregon building is easily reached from the European 
Exhibits palace and the main entrance. In design the 
structure is of Colonial architecture. The Massachusetts 
building, which adjoins that of Oregon, is a reproduction 
of the famous Bullfinch front of the State House on 
Beacon Hill, Boston. New York's building occupies a 
commanding site on Lakeview Terrace, overlooking the 
lake and government peninsula. This building is de- 
signed after the Italian renaissance and is one of the 
handsomest of any of the state buildings. Idaho has 
built a unique building of a style peculiar to inter-moun- 
tain countries, immediately adjoining the New York 
building. Illinois' building also forms one of this group, 
as well as the Utah state building. Excepting Illinois, 
each state building contains a comprehensive display of 
the respective states' resources, products and manufac- 
tures. Aside from exhibit purposes the buildings have 
been designed to afford ample accommodations for the 
entertainment of visitors. The Illinois building is for 
entertainment purposes only. All the state buildings are 
conveniently located. At previous expositions the state 
buildings have been located in remote parts of the 
grounds. The total state participation aggregates more 
than one million dollars. 



^W^HIS structure is the largest on the grounds and 
vL stands to the right of Columbia Court as you 
pass through the Colonnade entrance. Its huge 
translucent dome may be seen not only from every part 
of the exposition grounds, but from many points in Port- 
land and for miles down the Willamette River. 
In design the structure is a composite study of 
Agriculture the Spanish renaissance and Mission architec- 
Buildinp; ture - The building contains one of the most 
__________ thorough displays of agricultural and horticul- 
tural products, foods and food products ever 
offered to public view, and affords those unfamiliar with 
agricultural and horticultural fields an excellent oppor- 
tunity to obtain a more intelligent conception of these 
industries. Oregon has acquired a great part of the space 
for exhibit purposes. All displays are made by counties. 
In this manner comprehensive exhibits of the products 
peculiar to the different sections of the state are made. 
The marvelous apples and strawberries of the Hood 
River district are creditably represented. From the Wil- 
lamette Valley and Southern Oregon various products 
characteristic of those regions are exhibited. A thorough 
display is made of the products of the great arid tracts in 
Eastern Oregon that are under irrigation. California and 
Washington have large exhibit spaces which accommo- 
date the displays that could not be contained in their state 
buildings. Manufacturers throughout the country make 
attractitve displays of manufactured food products, and 
in some instances show the practical side of their pro- 
cesses with intricate mechanisms in operation. Fine wines 
form an important part of the exhibits of the Agriculture 
building. Wine-makers of California, famous for the ex- 
cellence of their products, are well represented. Eastern 
as well as Western beer manufacturers make large dis- 
plays. Whiskey manufacturing is illustrated with inter- 
esting exhibits of the processing, the crude and finished 
products. Some of the foremost distillers in the country 
are participants.

ffl 



ANY groups of paramount historical interest are 
included among the sculptural offerings of the 
exposition. The compositions are all by Ameri- 
can sculptors and present one of the finest exhibits ever 
included in a like enterprise. Just inside the imposing 
Colonnade entrance is a group by Frederick 
Remington, who has portrayed the playful side 
Statuary °^ *-he ^ e °* ^ e cowboy. Four hilarious "cow- 
^_______ punchers," possibly a little the worse from an 

over-indulgence in liquor, are depicted on the 
backs of their favorite bronchos, dashing furiously 
through a town and shooting their revolvers in the air. 
This group is typical of the earlier Western life, when 
Saturday night's diversion was to get drunk and "shoot 
up the town." Standing in the center of Columbia court 
is a heroic bronze figure of Sacajawea, the Shoshone 
woman who guided Lewis and Clark on their famous ex- 
pedition into the great Northwest. The composition is 
by Miss Alice Cooper, of Denver, and shows a con- 
scientious study of the theme. Sacajawea is portrayed 
as a young mother, her papoose lashed to her back. With 
one arm raised high and face radiant, it would seem that 
after months of awful suffering she found solace in her 
first glance at the placid Pacific. The figures of Captains 
Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, which adorn either 
end of the balustrade on Lakeview terrace, are appro- 
priate companion statues to tHat of Sacajawea. F. W. 
Ruckstuhl, in his composition of Captain Clark, portrays 
the explorer as he was garbed upon the completion of his 
long journey. The figure of Meriwether Lewis is by 
Charles Lopez. Several groups by Solon H. Borglum, 
idealizing the life of the Indians, are placed to advantage 
on Lakeview terrace. "A Step Toward Civilization," by 
A. A. Weinmann, the youngest American sculptor, is lo- 
cated in the Concourse plaza, and is a marvelous sculp- 
tural conception. Mr. Weinmann offers a careful study 
of the poetic side of his subject. The "Horse Facing the 
Storm" is just west of the Grand Stairway. 

12 



r^i CROSS Columbia Court and opposite the Agricul- 
}fff^ ture building is the European Exhibits building. 
While not so large as the neighboring structure, 
the building is equally as attractive, if not more so, with 
its numerous towers and the great central pavilion which 

surmounts it. The building is in gen- 

=== era i keeping with the other structures, 

1 he European being of Spanish renaissance in design. 
Exhibits Building One-half of this entire structure is given 
== _ = __ ==== ^_ to Italy. This country has utilized most 
of its space for a display of fine marble 
statuary. This exhibit is valued at more than a million 
dollars and is the best Italy has ever made. Among the 
many sculptural offerings are compositions of Italy's 
greatest masters, gathered from the Loggia in Florence 
and from the gallaries of Rome, Venice, Naples and 
Genoa. The rest of the Italian participation is made up 
of displays from various sections of the country, showing 
its manufactures and its agricultural and horticultural 
products. England is represented with a very creditable 
and interesting exhibit. France makes a splendid show- 
ing of fine arts, sculpture, costly gowns and lingerie. 
Germany has sent a very comprehensive exhibit, which 
is contained in this building. Austria's display is com- 
posed principally of a valuable exhibit of fine Bohemian 
glassware. Norway and Sweden have a joint display. 
Holland's section is devoted to an exhibit of products 
and manufactures peculiar to that country. The display 
from Prussia is complete and. of unusual interest. Swit- 
zerland makes a very creditable exhibit of fine watches 
and fancy laces. Russia, after reconsideration, sent a 
splendid exhibit of fine furs and unique hammered brass 
and copper goods, as well as a thorough display of its 
agricultural products. For the convenience of visitors, 
all European exhibits have been housed in one building, 
which is amply large to accommodate them all. 
This greatly facilitates the locating of any exhibit and 
is a feature not heretofore included in an exposition. 

14 



^ri ETWEEN the European Exhibits building and 
jXj^ the Forestry structure, and facing the Oregon 
and Massachusetts buildings, will be found the 
Oriental Exhibits building. The main entrance to this 
structure is situated on Lewis and Clark boulevard. This 
building in design is the nearest ap- 
proach to classical architecture of any 
1 he Oriental of the exposition buildings. It is a free 
Exhibits Building study of the Corinthian order. The 



mam entrance is very imposing, a great 
arch located between massive but- 
tresses. Ornate staff work has been used to advantage 
to elaborate the entire building. The long facades are 
broken occassionally by fluted pilasters, and all windows 
are surrounded with attractive casings. Japan occupies 
the largest space in the building, making a special dis- 
play of Japanese arts and crafts. Fine silk embroidered 
work is featured, and bronze of the most marvelous 
workmanship are given advantageous places. An inter- 
esting display is made of Japanese potteries, as well as 
the various crockeries of the Island Kingdom. The ex- 
hibit of cloissone, democene, arita and Imari ware is of 
unusual interest. China follows with an exceedingly 
large exhibit. In this, the remarkable inlaid and hand- 
carved ebony furniture for which -the country is famous 
is featured. Teakwood boxes and heavy chests are also 
shown, as well as a very thorough display of fine em- 
broideries and art silks. India's display is composed 
principally of the wonderfully woven rugs and shawls. 
Aside from these, however, curiously carved ivories and 
antique bronzes are shown. Ceylon makes a feature of 
her teas, which have gained her worldly renown. Al- 
geria and Turkey have made a joint exhibit, which was 
assembled under the direction of one commissioner. The 
display represents principally the fine sandalwood carv- 
ings and trinkets for which these countries are noted. 
Like the European exhibits, all Oriental displays are 
housed in one building for the convenience of visitors. 

16 



CHE building in which are housed the exhibits 
classified under these heads is one of the largest 
of the exposition palaces. It faces the Con- 
course Plaza and is neighbor to the Agriculture building. 
Spanish renaissance has been followed in the design of 
this structure. An imposing entrance, 
elaborated with Corinthian columns and 
Manufactures pilasters, features the west facade. To 
Liberal Arts and facilitate the locating of any one ex- 

Varied Industries hibit ' \ he * s P lays T are » u g ™ up * d un A d f 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^ separate heads, in the Graphic Arts 
section, a comprehensive display is 
made of everything pertaining to modern printery. Large 
press and paper manufacturers have participated liber- 
ally. The manufacture of ropes and hawsers is shown 
in the Cordage section. The Pharmacy section contains 
exhibits of the manufacture of patent nostrums, anesthet- 
izing and pharmapeutic apparatus and medical instru- 
ments, as well as showing displays of medical supplies. 
This exhibit should be of unusual interest to men in the 
profession. The latest improved methods of systematiz- 
ing offices are shown in the Office Supply section. Great 
files and other office furniture are shown, typewriters, 
adding machines and all the kindred articles that serve 
to make the furnishing of an office up-to-date. The ex- 
hibits showing the manufacture of cloths, threads and 
commodities used in tailoring and haberdashery are all 
grouped conveniently on the east side of the building. 
A number of manufacturers have erected large machines, 
showing the various stages of manufacture. A splendid 
display of American manufactured musical instruments 
is shown in the Musical section. An enterprising stove 
manufacturer offers a large and instructive exhibit show- 
ing the manner in which the family range is made. A 
large space is devoted to fine furniture and its manufac- 
ture. Jewelry is well represented. The exhibits in this 
building represent the entire participation in the Centen- 
nial by American manufacturers.

OST original of all the exposition buildings is 
the Forestry structure. It is distinctly a 
Western building and represents one of Ore- 
gon's greatest industries. Constructed entirely of huge 
logs, it is exceedingly picturesque, with its crude facades 

and roughly hewn embellishments. 

Miles of logs, more than six feet in 
Forestry Building diameter, and tons of shakes and 
________^_____ shingles were required for the construc- 
tion of this unique structure. As to its 
interior, the Forestry building is inspiring. More than 
fifty great tree columns, veterans of a virgin forest, sup- 
port the rafters. These range from six feet to eight feet 
in diameter and are fully sixty feet tall. The interior of 
the building is as crudely finished as the exterior. Here 
and there rustic stairways lead to the second and third 
floors. From the balconies great doors open upon at- 
tractive porticoes. The building is the most original 
architectural creation ever offered to public view and is 
in many .respects the most interesting structure on the 
expostiion grounds. In this building are housed various 
displays showing the manner in which commercial lum- 
ber is manufactured. In one corner is a saw-mill in op- 
eration. This shows the great trees as they are fed to 
the saws and squared. The cutting of rough lumber is 
next shown, and so on until the complete process is illus- 
trated. In another section of the building the manufac- 
ture of finished lumber and veneers is shown. Lumber 
products, such as doors, sashes and wainscots are ex- 
hibited. In the Oregon section are shown displays of 
every kind of lumber that may be found in the state. As 
fisheries are closely associated with the forestry industry, 
the state maintains a salmon hatchery in the building. 
This affords the visitor an opportunity to witness the cul- 
tural work among the Royal Chinook and steel-head sal- 
mon. All in all, the Forestry exhibit is the most com- 
plete of its kind ever contained in an exposition. It is 
easily recognized by its rustic structure. 

20 



^\ LMOST adjoining the Mines and Metallurgy build- 
^jj, ing will be found the Machinery, Electricity and 
Transportation building. The construction of 
this building was authorized about the time the other ex- 
position buildings were completed, and little attempt has 
been made at design. Notwithstanding, 
7"~ the structure is very presentable. The ex- 

Machinery hibits are divided into three sections. The 

Electricity and Transportation section is in the north end. 

TVansnortahon Here is shown every mode of conveyance. 
* Automobiles are given liberal space. 

This display shows all the numerous 
types of automobiles. Gasoline propelled vehicles oc- 
cupy most of the space, but electric and steam auto- 
mobiles are displayed. Various types of boats are 
exhibited. Kindred manufactures, such as harness, 
saddlery and vehicle furnishings, are shown. Railroad 
transportation is creditably represented. The largest 
locomotive ever constructed in the United States forms 
a part of the display. Offering an interest and abrupt 
contrast to this gigantic Mogul is the "Oregon Pony," 
the first locomotive used in this state. This diminutive 
railroad engine is only thirteen feet long. Various types 
of passenger and freight locomotives are displayed, as 
well as refrigerator cars. Mining locomotives are also 
shown. The latest improved patterns of electrical ap- 
pliances are shown in the Electricity section. Huge dy- 
namos and motors are operated. Electricity in its va- 
rious applications is illustrated. The telephone and tele- 
graph and wireless telegraphy are exhibited. Hundreds 
of kinds of electric lights, heaters and other household 
commodities are displayed. In the Machinery section 
may be seen great engines in operation ; not only steam 
engines, but those run by gas and compressed air. Aside 
from these displays, a comprehensive exhibit is made of 
varied transmissions, gears, boiler-making and fittings. 
The display of agricultural machinery is contained in an 
annex erected in the rear of the Transportation section. 

22 



/JW^HE display of minerals, precious stones and min- 
\y_ ^ m §" machinery at the exposition surpasses simi- 
lar exhibits at earlier expositions. The Mines 
and Metallurgy building is a splendid structure, 200 feet 
long and 100 feet wide, with a one-story addition, known 
as the Black Sands annex, extending 60 feet 
== from the east facade. As the exposition is be- 
MineS and ing held with the principal object of exploiting 
Metallurgy t ^ le resources of the Northwest, it is fitting 
_^___^^_ that a thorough display of the mineral wealth 
be made. Housed in this building are exhibits 
from the states of Montana and Wyoming, as well as 
those of Oregon and exhibits from numerous individual 
miners illustrating the various methods of obtaining min- 
erals from the ore. The displays of Washington, Utah 
and California are housed in the respective state build- 
ings. The center of the building is a great display of 
gems of fabulous value, which should prove of unusual 
interest to the visitor. These precious stones are shown 
in two immense safes, fitted with plate glass fronts so 
that the visitor to the Mines and Metallurgy building 
may have an unobstructed view of the display. In one 
corner of the structure a large ore furnace in operation is 
shown. Placer as well as quartz mining is given con- 
siderable space, and the enormous monitors playing their 
great and powerful streams of* water upon improvised 
mountain-sides offer an enlightening idea of the manner 
in which minerals are obtained by placer methods. The 
Black Sands annex is an entirely new exposition feature. 
The United States government has provided for careful 
and systematic investigation of these sands, which are 
peculiar to the Pacific Coast, to establish credence to the 
reports of geologists and mineralogists which would in- 
dicate that these sands possess marvelous wealth in new 
and valuable minerals. The building for the carrying on 
of the experiments represents the exposition's co-opera- 
tion with the government. 

24 



/JW^HE display of fine arts is located in a fire-proof 
VL structure facing the Forestry building. This 
building is planned in the form of an "L" and is 
designed to display the numerous works of art to their 
best advantage. Light is afforded by a system of electric 
globe installations placed about seven feet from 
the floors of the galleries. Notable among the 
Fine Arts ^ vol "ks displayed are examples of the early 
= ___^___ Dutch, French and English masters. These con- 
stitute groups of representative and carefully 
selected works. One of the most excellent features of 
the exhibit is a large group representing the works of 
Mauet, Monet, Sisley, Pissaro, Reouard, Huguet, Boudin 
and Mary Cossat. Another of the best groups is that of 
the works of George Innes. The chief feature of the Fine 
Arts display is its compactness. Visitors to former expo- 
sitions were awed by the extent of the displays, and in 
many instances were forced to leave without seeing the 
entire exhibit. With the Fine Arts display of the Lewis 
and Clark Exposition what is lacking in quantity is more 
than made up in quality. Of the works of the latter-day 
painters and sculptors, a great many of well-known 
American geniuses are represented with creditable dis- 
plays, as well as a number of the foremost men of Euro- 
pean countries. A display which, though not housed in 
the Fine Arts building, may appropriately be considered 
an adjunct to the main exhibit, will be found in the Euro- 
pean Exhibits building in the Italian section. This offers 
some of the most marvelous achievements of marble 
sculpture known in the field of art. The various groups 
and figures have been carefully selected from the galleries 
of Rome, Naples, Florence and Venice, and brought to 
the exposition as a part of the Italian government's ex- 
hibit. No more complete or creditable exhibit of fine arts 
has ever been made. The displays will be found classified 
according to countries from which they have been 
procured, and representatives of each will give the people 
courteous attention.

/^W^HE livestock sheds are located on the peninsula 
\fl^ projecting into Guild's lake, near the Govern- 
ment buildings. This display is one of the best 
of its kind ever made and should prove of unusual inter- 
est, particularly to stock enthusiasts. More than $50,000 
has been appropriated for premiums by the Ex- 
position Company and by various stock associa- 
Livestock tions. The American Jersey Cattle Club appro- 
.^^^^^^_ priated $1,000, the American Shorthorn Breed- 
ers' Association $3,000, the Percheron Registry 
Association $2,000, the American Hereford Breeders' As- 
sociation $1,000, and numerous other organizations have 
made allotments of smaller denomination. The Livestock 
display is by far the largest ever held on the Pacific 
Coast, and will afford the enthusiasts of the Pacific 
Northwest an opportunity to see the best cattle from 
every part of the country. All cattle participating are 
registered. A representative display of Holsteins is 
made. Record-breaking milk and butter makers, which 
have astonished the entire dairying world, are to be seen 
in the sheds on the peninsula. Jerseys participate to a 
large extent, as well as Herefords and Durhams. The 
dates for the cattle show are from September 9th to Sep- 
tember 29th, inclusive. The show of sheep, goats and 
swine will also be made within these dates. From Ore- 
gon in particular an excellent showing of hogs is made. 
The horse exhibit will be from August 28th to September 
8th. The poultry show is from October 5th to October 
12th. In this, egg-laying prodigies of every known 
specie will be in evidence, and the finest of game cocks 
will be displayed. The location for the Livestock dis- 
play is easily accessible from various parts of the grounds 
— from the Government buildings by a short walk, from 
the Trail over the Bridge of Nations, or from the Grand 
esplanade by means of the numerous boats on Guild's 
lake.

^ ments by building commodious toilet 

Public Convenience rooms in every exhibit palace, and 
Arrangements otner parts of grounds. There are in 
- all eighteen of these rooms, all hand- 

somely and conveniently appointed. 

Contrary to the custom of previous expositions, there 
is no charge for public convenience, except that a fee of 
five cents is charged for use of towels, mirror, soap and 
brushes. At each place there is also a shoe-shining stand 
for the convenience of visitors at the fair. 

The buildings in which toilets are found are as follows : 
Forestry, Oriental Exhibits, European Exhibits, Agricul- 
ture, Liberal Arts, Mines and Metallurgy, and Electricity 
and Transportation. Public convenience arrangements 
are provided also, both for men and women, in the Ex- 
perimental Gardens. In addition to these provisions, 
every state building is similarly equipped, and a majority 
of the concessions on The Trail have toilet rooms. In 
all cases the service is free. 

Portland has one of the best water systems in the 
world, and an abundance of clear and sparkling water is 
provided free at all times at many places on the exposi- 
tion grounds. Portland water is piped from Bull Run, a 
small stream which has its origin in the glaciers on Mt. 
Hood, and its absolute purity has been established by 
expert analysis. 

In Centennial park, a charming piece of woodland in 
the western portion of the grounds, visitors may rest on 
rustic benches which line the avenues, while in various 
other parts of the grounds, especially on the slope of 
Lakeview terrace, comfortable benches have been placed 
at frequent intervals. The terrace benches are especially 
popular, as band concerts are given every afternoon and 
evening in the music shell on the shore of Guild's lake.

^^b^HERE are few, if any places, in 
■ j the State of Oregon where as 

^^^ many opportunities are offered 
the homeseeker and investor as in Jack- 
son County, of which Medford is the 
principal city. 



The Medford people will be 
found ready to aid visitors in see- 
ing their resources. A handsome 
exhibit building has been erected 
near the depot, and people passing 
through can get off and see her 
farm products exhibited and form 
their own conclusions. This sec- 
tion of the country, while it can- 
not be excelled as a grain produc- 
ing country, has been found even 
more valuable as a fruit and dairy 
country. The fruits raised here 
are world famous, and the rich 
bottom lands will produce three 
and often four large crops of al- 
falfa without irrigation. 

Under the able management of 
Medford' s leading citizens a rail- 
road has been projected from Med- 
ford to Crater Lake. The construc- 
tion has already been begun, and 
grading is well under way towards 
Eagle Point, some 12 miles from 
Medford. From Eagle Point the 
road will be pushed as rapidly as 
possible until the timber belt is 
tapped, after which extensions will 
be made as fast as they are justi- 
fied. 

It is not so much the opening 
up of these vast pine forests, with 
their 4,000,000,000 feet of timber, 
however, which is of the greatest 
importance to the valley, but the 
fact that in addition to furnishing 
transportation facilities to the lum- 
bermen, the road will enable the 
thousands of acres of unimproved 
agricultural land to be utilized for 
farming and fruit raising, and will 
also, by allowing the timber to be 
cut, convert 250,000 acres of tim- 
ber land into the best fruit land, 
for the soil in the forests of the 
valley and foot hills, unlike that 
of many portions of the State, is 



very rich, and will produce all the 
varieties of vegetation which the 
rich bottom lands produce, and at 
the same time has the advantage 
of being naturally provided with 
water in abundance for irrigation 
purposes, which, while not neces- 
sary, enables the farmer and fruit 
grower to raise much larger and 
more valuable crops than can be 
raised without irrigation, although 
the natural production, without ir- 
rigation, far surpasses that of any 
other part of the State. 

The importance of this feature 
of the enterprise cannot be over- 
estimated, as the thousands of 
homeseekers from the East who are 
looking for locations in the West, 
in order to escape the severe Win- 
ters and scorching Summers of the 
Middle States, with their droughts 
and crop failures, are in most cases 
people of moderate means, who can- 
not afford to invest in the high- 
priced improved lands of the rich 
valleys of Oregon, and yet do not 
desire to locate beyond the reach 
of railroad transportation. The 
opening up of these great forests 
to the farmer and small rancher 
by cutting off the timber, will meet 
both of these objections, as the 
owner of the land will already 
have made a profit on the land out 
of the timber, and so be enabled 
to sell the bare land at low prices, 
but the newcomer will have rail- 
road facilities almost at his door, 
and be enabled to dispose of his 
products in the best markets. An- 
other advantage of special interest 
to the fruit grower is the fact that 
the orchards planted in that section 
will be entirely free from fruit 
pests of all kinds for years to 
come, while the land is even better 
adapted to fruit culture than the 
lands in the center of the valley.

Every Visitor 
To the Exposition 



B~HOULD visit North 
(Long) Beach, Wash-

sort of the North Pacific Coast. 
The trip down the Columbia on 
the "T. J. Potter," queen of river 
boats, is one never forgotten. 
The trips up and down the Co- 
lumbia on the trains of the Ore- 
gon Railroad & Navigation Com- 
pany afford a magnificent view of 
the matchless scenery. For par- 
ticulars ask at Third and Wash-

CHE gates open to the public at 8 a. m. They re- 
main open continually all morning, afternoon 
and evening. 
Be sure to count your change when buying tickets 
to any attraction. While ticket-sellers are invariably 
honest, histories of expositions show that 
thousands of dollars are left behind by ex- 
1 hmgS Vv ortn cited or absent-minded people. 

Knowing -^° not nes itate to ask information of 

any guard or employe of the exposition. 

They are paid for telling you things you 
wish to know concerning the exposition. 

There are four entrances to the exposition. One is 
at each side. The main entrance is at the south. The 
north entrances give access from the river. Boats run 
from the various docks in the city to the exposition 
grounds. The trip by steam or gasoline boat requires 
from fifteen minutes to half an hour. 

The exhibit palaces close at sundown. The time to 
see the exhibits is in the daytime. The Trail will be at 
its best by night. Nightly electrical illumination are a 
feature of the fair. 



^JWp'HE first time you see the exposition go in by way 

VI of the main entrance. You will thus be able to 

get a better idea of the plan on which the 

grounds are laid out. There is nothing complex about 

this plan. 

Passing through the main entrance, the 
first building to your left is the Administration 
Key to the building. This is merely the office-place of 
Exposition exposition officials. 

^_^_____ Go straight ahead, passing under the Col- 

onnades. That building to your right, this 
side of the Colonnades, is the Postoffice building, where 
the methods of handling United States mail are shown.

Weinhards 



is the

47 



Free postal delivery is made herefrom to every part of 
the exposition. 

Passing the Colonnades, the first building is the Fire 
Department, where model apparatus is installed and ex- 
pert fire-fighters and trained horses stand ready to an- 
swer a summons of fire at an instant's notice. You are 
welcome to inspect this building. 

The next building, with the latticed windows, is police 
and detective headquarters. This is the place to tell your 
troubles if you have any. 

Having crossed the street that now intervenes, you 
are at the magnificent Agricultural palace. To the right 
is arranged the Machinery, Transportation and Elec- 
tricity, the Liberal Arts, Varied Industries and Manu- 
factures, and the Mining buildings, the Auditorium and 
the Missouri State building. 

Grouped behind the Agricultural palace are the New 
York, Illinois, Idaho and Utah State buildings. 

Returning again to the front of the Agricultural build- 
ing, which is the logical starting point, the line of build- 
ings to the left are the Foreign Exhibits, Oriental and 
Forestry buildings, the latter standing at the top of the 
gradual rise. South of these structures, arranged in a 
line, are the Coos County, Oregon, and Massachusetts 
buildings and the Museum of Fine Arts. 

Adjoining the Forestry building are the California 
and the Washington State buildings, and west of these 
the beautiful natural park. Passing east again on one of 
the numerous paths, the main terraces appear. Here is 
given an exceptional view of the lake and lower part of 
the exposition. 

Hereafter the situation is self-explanatory. That shell- 
shaped structure below you is the acoustical bandstand, 
where daily open-air band concerts will be given. To the 
right lies The Trail, and across the Bridges of Nations is 
the magnificent Government building.

CHE Trail, the amusement feature of the exposition, 
marks the beginning of the bridge which crosses 
Guild's lake. After examining any of the thousands 
of interesting exhibits contained in the large palaces, the 
visitor may find much to amuse him within a few short 
steps of the principal parts of the exposition 
grounds. The Trail is easily reached from the 
Y\\e Trail Government buildings, from the American inn, 
________ Columbia court, or the Concourse plaza. Its 

attractions are all of the best, affording the 
cleanest and most spontaneous of humor. The manage- 
ment of the exposition has striven to make The Trail 
superior to the corresponding features of any previous 
exposition. Applications for concessions of an objection- 
able nature were denied, referring, in particular, to those 
of a morbid character. Like all features of the exposi- 
tion, The Trail is compact. To see The Trail does not 
require a tiresome walk. . Such was not the case at pre- 
vious expositions. While most of the concessions may 
correctly be classified as amusements, a number of them 
are extremely edifying. Some offer magnificent exempli- 
fications of plastic art, portraying the great calamity 
which overtook Galveston, the marvelous Cascades, of 
the St. Louis exposition, and a number of places of public 
interest. Others show the methods of mining in far 
northern Alaska, a country with which most of us are 
woefully unfamiliar. Animal phenomena are well repre- 
sented and offer mystifying feats of calculation and acro- 
batics. Remarkable showings of the power of man over 
ferocious beasts of the jungle may be seen in the wild 
animal show. 

The foolish side of The Trail makes a creditable 
showing with mazes of varied design, the Streets of 
Cairo, where Oriental maids in ethereal garb dance their

m\\ ISITORS who have failed to see the country 
WOr tapped by the Southern Pacific lines between 
Portland and San Francisco have missed the rich- 
est part of the great Western Empire. From Portland 
south as far as Ashland is one vast field of opportunities 
for the homeseeker and investor. The 
famous Willamette valley is traversed 
Lines Or the its entire length in making this trip. The 
Southern Pacific hop-growing sections of Marion and 
====== __ __^_ Linn counties, the grain and fruit-pro- 
ducing sections of Lane county may be 
passed through in daylight. In both counties the indus- 
tries are not developed to the extent they will be in fu- 
ture years, and the enterprising man may be a part of 
the future development and profit by it. 

From the Willamette valley the road passes directly 
into the center of the Umpqua valley. This valley is one 
of the richest in the West. The mountains surrounding it, 
while they have yielded up thousands of dollars in min- 
eral wealth, are yet but partially developed. 

The Rogue River valley is next encountered, and its 
vast fields of green alfalfa and flourishing orchards are 
traversed from end to end. A new railroad, building from 
Medford to the country farther east, will open up thou- 
sands of acres of virgin soil and vast areas of timber yet 
unscarred by the woodman's axe\ 

Ashland is in the very head of the valley, and from 
here commences a laborious climb over the high moun- 
tain range. The scenery of the Shastas is famous 
throughout the world and needs no description. Descend- 
ing the mountain, the train stops for several minutes at 
the Shasta Mineral Springs, where the traveler may 
alight and drink nature's natural soda as it sparkles from 
the ground. There are two trains daily over this route, 
so that the entire trip may be made in daylight.

This wonderful bit of needle painting is probably the 
greatest achievement of woman from an artistic view, and 
has challenged the admiration of the whole world. It 
received the Gold Medal at the Paris Exposition in 1900, 
and the highest award — the Grand Prize — at the Louisiana 
Purchase Exposition, at St. Louis, in 1904. Its art value 
is estimated at $50,000.

■JLjl OT to see the Government's buildings and ex- 
~^fj+, hibits is to miss a liberal education. All de- 
partments of the government are fittingly repre- 
sented by elaborate displays that tell their own story. 
Inside the main building you should see : Heavy 
artillery, in charge of artillerymen 
and navy gunners ; water buffalo 
The United States and other Philippine exhibits ; navy 

Government Exhibit hos P ital and collection of projec- 

__^^_^________^ tiles used by the big guns ; army 

pack-train, hospital wagons, arms 
and ammunition, including a collection that shows the 
evolution of firearms from the old matchlock to the latest 
magazine rifle ; model of famous Arlington cemetery ; 
models of postal cars, famous warships, canal-locks, forti- 
fications and the section showing methods of postal de- 
livery from Malamoot sled team to latest mail car. 

Decorations on the walls show Yellowstone park and 
government buildings and utilities and paintings of fa- 
mous statesmen. In an ante-room are stuffed animals 
from all over the world, together with remains of pre- 
historic animals. The complete skeleton is here shown 
of the largest mastadon ever unearthed in America. There 
is also a meteor that fell in Mexico a year ago and which 
weighs four tons. Best methods in agriculture are fully 
shown. Attaches of the government attend each exhibit 
and will devote their time to making any and all explana- 
tions that may be sought by visitors regarding any 
phase of the exhibits. Important government works 
that cannot be shown in exhibits are presented in life- 
motion pictures. Naval and land battles will be pre- 
sented in this manner. 

Outside the main building are totem poles and many 
picturesque and interesting exhibits too large for the in- 
terior. A full display from Alaska will be found in the 
Alaskan wing. Another interesting display is shown in 
the Fisheries wing. . A fully equipped life-saving station 
stands on the banks of the lake near the main building.
